<p>UCI will be a Reach for you.</p>

<p>Extracurriculars are not very strong, and low GPA will hurt your chance for admission. </p>

<p>Good luck though : )</p>

3

<p>UCI is going to be a reach for you =. Good luck!</p>

4

<p>yes, UCI is a reach. But you'll be fine at Riverside and Merced, if you applied.</p>

5

<p>What about UCSC?</p>

6

<p>^ I'd say you have a good chance of getting into UCSC as well</p>

7

<p>10% chance at UCI =)</p>

8

<p>One question about UCI: are the classes there mostly in lecture format like UCLA, with 300+ students per classroom? Or is it more focused on the individual?</p>

9

<p>^ Depends on the class. Most lectures are about 200-300 people, yeah. My smallest lecture (calculus) has 100 people (though only about 30 people attend haha)</p>
